Boardroom Governance Summit Africa 2026 rescheduled to November 12

The Boardroom Governance Summit Africa 2026, originally set for October 7, has been rescheduled to November 12, 2026. The event will take place at the Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra, under the theme “Board Committees: From Oversight to Impact.” Organizers announced the date change following discussions with partners, speakers, and guests of honor.

They explained that the summit's international interest has surged beyond initial forecasts, with a significant number of attendees now coming from outside Ghana. This growth has transformed the summit from a Ghanaian event into a continental one, according to BGS Africa Founder and Convenor, Ing. Prof. Douglas K. Boateng. Boateng noted that the summit is now a continental gathering, with people from across the continent traveling to Ghana.

Boateng emphasized that a brief delay is a small price for a more prepared, inclusive, and truly continental summit. The organizers assured that the summit is not cancelled and will proceed on the new date. Existing registrations and tickets remain valid, with benefits such as summit access, meals, a complimentary copy of Practical Perspectives on the Committees of the Board, and CPD recognition for partner institutions' members remaining unchanged.

Sponsorship and partnership benefits will also stay in effect. Delegates unable to attend on November 12 will be granted a refund. Registration for the summit is still open at boardroomgovsummit.com/registration.
